Bottle/container for carrying spare petrol

[scbk]

Hi, just wondering if anyone has any past experience on carrying extra petrol for a strimmer about your person.

For when strimming long distances away from your vehicle.

I'm thinking some sort of smallish container to carry in a rusksack or similar

 

I looked at the alloy fuel bottles for camping stoves but it's nearly £20 for a 1 litre bottle

 

 

Many years ago when I was at the council you'd sometimes take an old plastic bottle out the bin, fill with petrol mix and stick it in your pocket, which never seemed ideal!

Ebay has the 1litre plastic mixing square bottles for 2 stroke. few quid and very tough.

Camelbak and siphon it straight it. Very efficient!

 

Anything that doesn't leak.

 

As above cheapo aluminium/fake sigg bottles cost next to nowt.

The old plastic drink bottle worked before so it,ll work again !! Me & my mates used to carry petrol in coke bottles on us when we used to race 2 strokes in the Weston Beach Race worked a treat,
